I got a Iphone 4 from UK and got unlocked in india, can i take the software updates? will my phone get locked due to this?
Your phone was "hacked" to unlock it. So, if you update software or restore your phone, it will be re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to in the UK.

After upgrading software, it appears the old software isn't deleted. My computer hard drive is almost full so I need to delete a ton off of my computer. When checking the software that can be deleted I noticed I can the old software hasn't been deleted. How can a person do this? Any suggestions on how to quickly dump some programs.
Sig is right — reclaiming space on your hard drive should be a matter of looking for the largest files you can delete, not starting with applications. I have 200+ applications on my hard drive, and altogether they occupy less than 14GB of space. Just a handful of them — Acrobat Pro, iPhoto, Aperture, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Adobe Media encoder — are larger than 500MB apiece, and if I disposed of all of those, I'd only get 5.6GB back. My Utilties folder contains 78 apps, and it only amounts to 1.1 GB.
If you have any feature-length movies on your hard drive, those should be the first things you trash or move to an external drive. -
I had been using an old iTunes program. This was with Snow Leopard. I bought a Nano 7, but it wouldn't work with the old iTunes. I upgraded to the newest edition, but then iTunes wouldn't open. I was told by Apple that the computer shouldn't have downloaded the latest iTunes (but it did). I was told I needed to upgrade to Mavericks.
So I di. iTunes still won't open, whether from the doc or the Application file. I tried to delete it and reinstall, but the computer won't let me. So how can I get iTunes to work?
Thanks!Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

We are trying to play playlists and a slideshow from an Apple Macbook wirelessly to the Apple TV. The small, upward arrow icon that appears on the bottom right of the screen (which allows you to pick Computer or Apple TV) doesn't always show up, and therefore, we can't get it to work. Any thoughts?
Airplay mirroring software will not work with anything below Mountain Lion 10.8 and an Apple computer from 2011 or newer.

Go to "About this Mac" and tell us:
1. What OS X version you are running
And then click on "More Info" and tell us
1. What year is your Macbook.
Also tell us a little about your cable and Wireless setup.
Maybe we can help. -
Updated my ipod touch to ios6 now apps close without warning and seems really slow to repsond. Also doesn't always connect to the Wifi never had any problems before upgrade
Try a hard reboot (hold home and power buttons down at the same time until your iPod reboots). If that doesn't work, do a restore in iTunes and do not restore from backup. You wqill lose your game data and settings, but your iPod should run better and work properly.

Doesn't always connect to internet. Why?
My internet connection is DSL through Comcast. I just set up Airport Express. I can always connect directly to my network, and the Internet Connect window shows my status as being connected via PPPoE, but when I go to start Firefox it takes several attempts to actually get to the internet. Sometimes an error message shows up concerning the PPPoE, but it doesn't make any sense. I usually end up fiddling with everything until somethig triggers the internet to start up. Does anyone know what's going on? I should be able to start Firefox up right away!
PowerBook G4 15" Mac OS X (10.3.9)To update, my connection is SBC (not Comcast) and the error message that sometimes pops up is "No PPPoE server has been found for the specified service. Please delete the service name option and try again." I followed those instructions and deleted the service name option, but the error message still pops up when I the internet doesn't connect.
Any help please! Thanks. -
how can i fix my iphone 3g if and only it displays the apple logo when it is connected to its charger but it displays nothing when the charger is removed?
Plug it into a wall outlet and leave it plugged in for approximately 20 minutes.
Then try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds.
Does the device power on at this point? If not, the battery or logic board is gone.
Take it to Apple for evaluation.
It may be worth replacing the battery, but I personally wouldn't spend the $149US for an Out of Warranty replacement on a 3+yr old device. -
Hi guys, I downloaded this new iOS7.1 but it always fails to install. It says I am not connected to the Internet while I have all the network and second excuse it gives is that the software update is currently unavailable. Please help.
Hi Romantilizer,
Hook your phone up to iTunes on the computer you sync with and do your update from there. This is a robust iOS release, and doing it OTA is not always successful. I tried on my iPhone a couple of times, and it aborted the update twice. Did it via the Mac, and it was fine.
It takes a bit of time, so hook it up, make sure it is updating your phone, and then find something else to do for a couple of hours.
Cheers,

Drag and Drop Apps to and from Dock, doesn't work for one account?
Hi there,
I have 2 accounts on my Macbook, one of them is my main account which is admin and nothing is wrong with it. The second account though is also admin but I cannot drag and drop applications to and from the dock. I can open the program, hold left click down till it pops up with options and in which you can untick Keep in Dock. Which would be fine but as soon as the computer restarts or I log out then in again, the application reappears. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
Note that I have deleted both plist files from library/preferences and I have also enabled parental controls and ticked the allow users to modify the dock option. I also tried downloading Onyx and setting it up through there but it was a no go. Anyway, if anyone has any idea then that would be awesome.

Ok, you can drag applications from your Applications and Utilities Folders to make a "alias" (aka shortcut) in the Dock, but if you drag the icon off and drop it, it "poof's" away as your deleting the alias. The program itself isn't in the Dock at all at any time.

Right, when you run a program from where ever, it places a alias icon in the Dock, which you then right click and choose to keep the alias in the Dock which survives reboots and logouts/in as normal.
If you right click and choose "open at log-in" the program will automatically run when you restart or log back into the account.

I don't see any problem, other than your not knowing the icons in the Dock are aliases.
You should set the same user controls and preferences on the second admin as the first and your problems should disappear.
OnyX is a great program, I recommend it highly, but I don't see it fixing your problem in this case. Unless there is something your not being clear on. -
Hello,
Perfectly fine working iPad and I attempted to load the software update provided for settings. Now all I get is an on again off again apple. Attempted hard reset to no avail. iTunes no longer recognizes the device. So......? what? how? where?
Thanks, RichardAnd one more point, I am not an Apple user. This is my first experience and have had to learn as I go. So any explanations please break it down for a noob. I am fairly computer geeky but when it comes to Mac or Apple or iAnything... I have zero experience.

I copied what I could onto an external hard drive but when I drag and drop I get directions to uninstall but the uninstall folder I have does says it is an alias that is no longer present. I get error 6. I would like to get my software up and running on the laptop again please
If you subscribed to iTunes match the songs are kept in icloud. If you didn't but you did save the actual iTunes library folder which should include the music, video, etc. you should be able to just drag this file back to your machine in the same place and when you open iTunes it will give you a chance to identify the iTunes library folder.
You can test this to find out if you saved the media files or not and don't need to attach your nano to do it.
You are correct that once you connect the nano it will clear the existing files from it and sync it with the new iTunes library.
If you don't have the media files i'm not sure if/how to get them back on a windows ipod. I have everything backed up regularly because of the horror stories I have seen & heard. -
my airport time capsule will no longer allow our iPhones or vizio smart tvs to connect to it, though my iPad air mac mini and mac air connect fine. Why is this? does a recent software update have anything to do with it?
What model is your TC? What is the firmware?
I recommend you do a factory reset and use short names.. not apple recommended names.
Short.. 2-20 characters .. less than 10 even better.
No spaces.
Pure alphanumeric.
Set fixed channels for 2.4ghz wireless.. test with 11, 6, 1 at least.
That often helps.. if not and is old, ie Gen1-4 go back to 7.6.1 firmware which is far more solid.
